“Tia is amazing. She treats my dogs as if they were her own. Being new to Duluth, she has provided me with recommendations for excellent vets. I truly appreciate all that she does for my dogs. If you are in need of a dog sitter, pick Tia!”
“Nicole was great! Communicative, shared lots of pictures from the check in, and even went the extra mile to keep an eye on and water started plants for our garden. We will definitely book again!”

“Peter & Barbara were great with our somewhat last-minute request to check in on our cat Lois. They were prompt to respond, easy to meet up with pre-booking, and during their visits they sent updates and photos of her that helped us know she was being taken care of. We will definitely plan to book through them again.”


About: Hi there! If you’re looking for someone who truly adores animals, you’ve come to the right place! From childhood through high school, I spent my time walking neighborhood dogs alongside caring for our own family pets. I was known around the neighborhood as the reliable babysitter and animal lover everyone could count on! At 17, I took on the rewarding challenge of training my own Service Dog, which gave me even more hands-on experience and deepened my love and understanding of dogs. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! From gentle senior pups who need a slower pace to week-old puppies still with their mama. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know and care for hundreds of dogs, each with their own unique personality and needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently on summer break from college, which means I will have plenty of time and flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and quality pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your furry family member. I tailor my care to each individual pup and always work closely with pet parents to create the safest and most comfortable environment possible, because nobody knows your dog better than you do! I have safety plans and routines in place for different types of care and am always happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. Feel free to message me with any questions about my services or safety measures! I’d love to chat and help you feel confident and comfortable when booking with me!
“Jaymi was very good with my cats! My elusive orange cat even let Jaymi pet her! Jaymi sent pics and videos of my sweet kitties each day along with an update about how they were doing. Will definitely check in with her in the future when I need kitty care. Thank You, Jaymi!”

“Courtney was so kind and welcoming while meeting my animals. She also took on the job very quickly and was great about communication! I could tell she is an animal lover to her core and my animals took to her quickly! Highly recommend Courtney if you need your animals cared for!”

“We absolutely loved Talia! She was able to help us out last minute when our last sitter fell through and gave us such relief with her updates and pictures. When we got home from our trip, we could tell that our pets were so happy and well cared for! :)”

“Kate is wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and a pet sitter. I have always relied on friends or a family member to check on our cats. Kate was very responsive throughout the whole process and made me feel at ease. She sent comprehensive updates on her visits and pics. I highly recommend her and will absolutely book again when we need a sitter!”

About: I've been taking care of family and friends pets for nearly a decade. I love spending time and getting to know each individual animal and what makes them unique. I would love to treat your pet like my own. https://www.rover.com/sit/fial23278 I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of spare time to spend with your pet! I normally only work a couple hours Tuesday afternoons and Saturday mornings. I love long walks or time in parks as well as quiet time at home for whatever suits your pet best! I'm more than happy to do whatever I can to make your furry friend as happy as possible.

About: I love animals. My childhood cat was my bestie, my current cat (a 2-year-old cutie named Ghost) is my soul kitty, and I consider my friends’ pets my furry nieces and nephews. :) I’ve been pet sitting (dogs and cats) for friends and family for at least 15 years (probably longer!), and I truly love caring for their pets. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving them love, food, pets, walks, and playtime when you’re not able to. I work from home and have a pretty flexible job. Because of that, arranging drop-in visits or dog walks in the Duluth area will be easy. I work to create a calm, safe atmosphere for pets, so they can get to know me on their terms and learn to trust me. I like doing drop-in visits because it allows the pet to be in their own space, where they feel most comfortable, while they get to know a new face. :)
About: I have over ten years of pet ownership and care experience. I have owned or cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, snakes, geckos, cattle, pigs, horses etc. I am an animal lover and will give your pets the same love I give to my own! I am currently on my summer break from veterinary school, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available for a wide variety of services. I am extremely attentive and take great pride in the attention to detail and thoroughness that I use in my daily life. I respect homeowner and pet owner rules completely. I will take extra precaution to ensure the safety and health of your animals in my care.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I work full-time during the week but I am always on the go and able to help with pet sitting, dog walking, helping with caring for animals as needed. I am available for house-sitting depending on the days/times. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
About: Hi! My name is Abigail, and I’m 24 years old. I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always felt like second nature to me. I have experience working with a wide range of pets, including dogs of all energy levels—from high-energy breeds that need structure and engagement to calm, easygoing companions like golden retrievers—as well as cats with a variety of personalities. I’m comfortable adapting my care to meet each animal’s unique needs. I currently offer in-home pet sitting, providing attentive care in your pet’s familiar environment so they can remain comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I also provide basic training support and walking assistance, especially for owners who may need extra help keeping their pets active and well cared for. I’m open to caring for other animals as well, such as birds or reptiles, as long as clear instructions are provided to ensure their routines and needs are met properly. With availability during the second half of my week, I’m excited to grow my pet-sitting business long term. My goal is to earn trust, build strong relationships with both pets and owners, and eventually turn my passion for animal care into a full-time career. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I look forward to connecting with interested pet owners and would be happy to answer any questions. Wishing you a wonderful day! I currently work the first half of the week but am available after 4 PM on Wednesdays and anytime from Thursday through Saturday. With this flexibility, I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets during my off days. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I keep a clean, pet-safe space, supervise pets at all times, and never introduce new animals without permission. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure. I pay close attention to pets’ body language and behavior to keep them comfortable and stress free. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
About: Hi there! I'm Adela. I've had dogs and cats in my life since I was tiny, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities, ages, and energy levels. I recently completed my MBA and am waiting to begin a remote role at the end of July, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, medications, playtime, and cuddles. I've also volunteered with the Animal Humane Society and a wildlife rehabilitation center, experiences that deepened my understanding of animal care and behavior. As an active Duluth resident who loves spending time outdoors, I'm happy to care for energetic pets who enjoy adventures as well as senior or more relaxed companions. My goal is simple: keep your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I recently completed my MBA and am waiting to begin a remote role later this summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, medications, and companionship throughout the day. Feel free to share your pet's routine and needs, and we can chat about fit! My goal is to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and respecting their individual personalities. Whether your pet enjoys lots of activity or prefers a quieter environment, I'll follow your instructions and provide attentive care. I love for pets to have as much freedom as possible, so if that fits in I'll be sure to incorporate it! My priority is ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Christina was very communicative and flexible with the needs for our pups. We loved that we were able to meet up prior to booking and it was clear our dogs had a great time while we were away. I’m sure our husky enjoyed all the fenced-in play time with new friends. We would highly recommend Christina and hope to utilize her services again in the future!”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born and have loved every one I’ve met. I have taken care of many pets, including dogs and cats, for the last few years professionally through my friends and family friends. I love taking them for walks, spending time playing with them, and have also fed and bathed pets. I currently work full time so I don’t have any flexibility within my day, but during the mornings (before 7:30a) or in the evenings (after 4:30pm) I’m all yours! I love getting in morning or evening walks and spend some good quality pet time with any pet! I cannot host the animal in my own place but I am a very clean and responsible individual. I am aware that you would be accepting me into your home and that takes a lot of trust. I am a very courteous guest who knows the importance of being allowed into your home and will treat it as kindly as possible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 233 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hermantown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hermantown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hermantown. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
